I've lurked on these boards a while and I've found it to be extremely helpful and interesting. I wonder if any one could give some advice with a problem of mine.
I've been having a bad spat of luck with phone interviews lately. The people who contact me seem interested in interviewing me for a position, but when the time comes for the scheduled phone call, nothing happens. I've tried calling them, emailing them, sometimes both with no success. It seems like past that initial contact, the company or rep ignores me. I'd be able to shake it off it this was a one time thing, but it's happened three times in row this past two months.
Is this normal? Do I have a right to be angry about this? I can understand emergencies or even a call being late, but not bothering to call me or contact me at all really irritates me. It's also killing my motivation to pursue a career in the industry.
